Beschreibung

"Mind Training" explores the science-backed methods for developing mental discipline, enhancing focus, and strengthening willpower. It challenges the notion that these attributes are innate, presenting them instead as trainable skills. Through targeted mental exercises and a structured approach, readers can learn to take control of their thoughts and actions, leading to increased productivity and improved stress management. Interestingly, modern neuroscience supports ancient philosophies on mental training, offering a deeper understanding of the brain mechanisms involved in attention and willpower. 

 
The book is uniquely valuable due to its emphasis on actionable strategies and practical exercises, providing a step-by-step guide applicable to diverse backgrounds. It progresses logically, beginning with the neuroscience and psychology behind attention, willpower, and cognitive control. It then introduces structured exercises, ranging from mindfulness to goal-setting, designed to strengthen these mental faculties. Finally, it integrates these techniques into daily life, offering methods for improving focus in various aspects, such as work and relationships.

Lillian: A True Story of...

Frank Alabiso Ph D.

For most of us, the varied parts of our personalities are woven together and unified by our memories. But what happens when we have no memories? What happens when the components of memory (facts, feelings, and body states) are split apart and no longer relate to each other?
 
When this story began more than 40 years ago, doctors and psychiatrists were mystified by patients with more than one personality. The diagnosis at the time was Multiple Personality Disorder. Lillian was afflicted with this condition owing to severe abuse during her childhood. Her mind held each trauma separately. Each personality took over her body, developing
 a life and personality of its own.
 
Lillian’s aunt, Jean, became friends with 22 personalities. She played hide and seek with four-year-old Mary, taught five-year-old Amy to write, shopped for undergarments with Robin Jean, and communicated endlessly with each of the others. In the process, each personality revealed its beginnings. Over time, each personality revealed its own memories of their trauma and eventually became integrated.
 
This is an exquisite and beautifully written story of poverty, transgenerational abuse, mental illness, and the healing power of love, science, and spirituality.
 
As one reader puts it: “You will laugh, cry, turn away and come back again to its compelling truth.”

25 Shocking Facts About North...

John Harpoon

North Korea remains one of the most secretive and isolated countries in the world, a nation shrouded in mystery and tightly controlled by its ruling regime. With limited access to information and heavy restrictions on communication with the outside world, understanding what life is truly like inside North Korea has long been a challenge. Despite these barriers, researchers, defectors, and investigative journalists have gradually revealed shocking details about the country’s inner workings.
The foundation of modern North Korea was established in the aftermath of World War II, when the Korean Peninsula was divided into two separate states. The North, under the leadership of Kim Il-sung, adopted a rigid communist ideology and built a powerful authoritarian regime. Over the decades, this system evolved into a personality cult centered around the ruling Kim family, with Kim Jong-il and later Kim Jong-un continuing to hold absolute control. This dynasty has enforced strict obedience through propaganda, fear, and isolation from the global community.
Every aspect of life in North Korea is closely monitored. Citizens are subjected to relentless surveillance, with state informants reporting on friends, neighbors, and even family members. This climate of fear ensures that few dare to challenge the regime. Education, media, and cultural expression are all carefully controlled to reinforce loyalty to the Kim family. Information from the outside world is heavily restricted, and those caught accessing foreign media face severe punishment.
